Overview
Description
“Number 18” offers peace and privacy in the sunny garden, with a spacious kitchen, and social spaces tumbling onto the deck via the French Doors. There is an adjacent dining room if in more formal mood, accessing the patio. Airy in summer, yet cosy when chilly, the additional lounge offers a wonderful log burner.Some five minutes amble from both the gorgeous North Beach, and the path up to Ballard Down (thence Old Harry Rocks and Studland). It is about 15 minutes walk along the Town Beach into Town. All the attractions of the Purbeck area and Poole (via the chain ferry) are nearby, and there is easy driveway parking for 2 or 3 cars.

- The master bedroom on ground floor with a king bed and en suite shower room

Think “home from home” with a green outlook, and you have an idea of what it is like to stay here and make memories! We will welcome you with a complimentary "phew we made it" bottle of French fizz, and a few supplies.

Leave ReviewOur children loved playing in the garden and making memories.
By Shannon on 18-Nov-2025Number 18 was spacious, light and bright and had everything we needed for a fantastic escape to Swanage. Perfect distance for a stroll to the beach, or the many amusements that Swanage has to offer. All the beds were clean and comfortable. Our children loved playing in the garden and making memories.
Terrific!
By Jez on 29-Sep-2025Thank you so much, we all had a lovely time. All the best, and thank you again. Terrific!
Perfect and peaceful
By Karen Tongue on 31-Jul-2024The house that just kept giving! Took my sister, who has mobility issues, down to Swanage and this property was perfect. Easy access, and with a ground floor bedroom/en suite, coupled with French doors from the kitchen on to the deck, suited our needs. Large, secure garden was great for the dog too! The house is clean, well-maintained and has super comfy bed and quality bedding. The kitchen is well equipped and has plenty of seating. We didn't use the lounge or dining room as we spent most of our time outdoors as the weather was perfect. Quiet beach closeby, or walk 5 minutes down to the main beach and town centre just 10 minutes. Communication with Chris was easy. Large area for parking on the drive. I'll definitely be looking to book again.
Lovely and warm with everything we needed.
By Richard on 14-Apr-2024Clean, comfortable and a great location, 5 minutes walk from the beautiful long sandy beach. No problem with parking here at all. We had excellent access to local amenities all within 15 minutes walk to Town. Loved the pubs. Swanage is really lovely, even when the weather isn’t the best. We had a really great stay. Thank you.
The Perfect Spot
By Adelaide on 14-Apr-2024We loved our stay in Swanage. This house is the perfect spot. A stones throw from a beautiful secret beach, and a town full of activities for the whole family in the other direction. All walking distance from the house. A wonderful spot to get the whole family together. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Delightful, homely house and good internet
By Jacqui G on 11-Apr-2024I have stayed several times in Swanage at number 18 a delightful, homely house and good internet. It’s less than a 5 min walk to the secret beach, a haven where few people go and great for swimming as shallow water, no steep drops so perfect for children. Pop down early morning for a dip and no one is there, it is just so magical. The Downs are on the doorstep if you fancy a stroll to Old Harry Rocks or laze in the lovely sunny garden with a G&T and al fresco dining! Can’t wait to come back.
